I have a 8 year old 50ib Catahoula. A couple of years ago I was 8 months pregnant and got laid off, in that time I couldn't afford heartworm prevention for my dog and he got heartworms. After I got a better job I invested A LOT of money in his heath. Not only that but I've been taking him to the vet once a year for summer allergies that cause him to chew on his back until he has huge bloody bald spots on half of his body. Helping this condition has also cost me ungodly amounts of money. Now he has a heart condition caused by the heartworms that causes him to constantly heave and hack. He can't go on walks. He can't run. Its now that time of year again and even with all my precautions the chewing has started again. I had to take out a loan for his care last year and I'm going to be paying on that for a while and we're right back where we started. As much as it kills me because I love him and my daughter ADORES him, I really just can't do it. He has to wear a muzzle to prevent the chewing and with that and the hacking the poor thing just has no quality of life. 

Proem is, EVERY time I bring him to the vet for these issues they guilt me into expensive tests and medicines and then act like its because I'm negligent. I'm tired of being treated like a bad dog mom. I thinks its time to put the poor thing out of his misery. 

Will the vet give me a hard time? Its hard enough as it is without someone treating me like a criminal. Is the heart problem and chewing a good enough reason? 

A year ago my brother moved from Louisiana to Texas with his wife. He had a junky little S-10 truck and did me a "favor" by giving it to my boyfriend so that my brother didn t have to take it with him since he got a new one. The starter was out and all of the tires were flat when he dumped it on our yard. Shortly after we noticed the back window had come unsealed due to the bass in the outrageous sound system my brother had gotten stolen out of it shortly before. Basically its garbage and not worth it to us to fix. Conveniently enough my brother has also lost the title so it s not even ours so we literally cant do anything with it. My brother has to be in the state to get a new title but that s not happening any time soon. I need it out of my yard NOW. I just get seething every time I have to go outside and look at it. What are my options? What can I do to get rid of this hunk of junk?

A week ago I was fired from my job while nine months pregnant. They made me lose my short term disability insurance for maternity leave. I cant even find a new job when I'm this close to labor so they completely ruined me. Long story short I did billing, HR, and reception work for Assisted Living apartments. My boyfriend did maintenance there as well. Two weeks ago they cut his hours and started harassing him so last Monday he walked out. At the end of the day I told my boss he quit after dragging it out all day, in hindsight it wasn't great idea but I knew she would be upset and I wanted it to wait until the end of the day. Two days later they fired me and told me it was because I lied as HR. I packed my stuff and was walked out by my boss, not even aloud to clock out. A week later I get my separation notice in the mail and it shows that I quit. That I packed my stuff and never returned. Why would I quit my job weeks before my maternity leave? Why would I lose myself my STD Insurance? This information is grossly incorrect. I know I was fired and can swallow that, I don't even want unemployment. But what rights do I have here? I was fired, I didn't quit, the separation notice should reflect that. Their information and their files are incorrect and makes it look like I walked out on my job, what can I do here?

Three months ago I find out I'm pregnant. He's even happy about it. We make plans come up with names all's good. Until about a month in, He's started treating me like ****. His last relationship was terrible, the chick did nothing for him, cheated constantly and was manipulating. he's started treating me like her. Joking that he's going to cheat on me, insisting I'll cheat on him. Telling me to leave as a joke. He has a habit of biting me hard when we play around and leaving bruises. Last week I was trying to get him to let go and he punched me in the stomach and said it was my fault. He gets moody and won't talk. Says I'll make a great single mom and teases me about my marriage. He treats me like garbage and then gets mad when I don't want to do things in bed for him later. I loved this guy for seven years. Now we're together and I feel like I may have made a mistake. My ex husband didn't make great choices but he always treated me well. I've been considering having the baby and taking off to my family 12 hours away. Filling for child support and not involving him in the babies life at all. He's not treating me well and he's not taking care of me And I don't deserve to be treated like his ex. He has good moments but reverts to the shitty ones quick and often. I've been doing my best to make it work but he seems to just get worse and now I'm just sick of it. But now he makes me the bad guy for not wanting to put up with it anymore. Should I have the baby and leave? Or?

I'm married and have been with my husband for four years, and I love him. But. Back in high school I was very close with a best friend of mine and her boyfriend. This was around when my parents took off so this guy's family basically adopted me. I've been friends with them for over seven years. In highschool I ****** up and fell in love with my friends boyfriend, but a lot of her friends had done that, I didn't just want to be one of those so I ate my feelings, moved on, and went on to marry my husband. A year ago my friend left her boyfriend and moved away. I still hang out with her ex (never alone together, I'm not stupid) because I'm still cool with him and his family and he's even friends with my husband. I have now learned that this guy is in love with me and has been for years and not making that decision years ago is one of his biggest regrets and it's ungrounded feelings I still have. Now I'm conflicted. I love my husband, he's a good man but now I feel like I've made a huge mistake and I'm with the wrong man. Im more compatible with this friend and want more of a life like he does. I mean my husband has become a flat-earther recently for instance. It's for real getting hard for me to get past that. I'm on the verge of running away with this guy, but I still care deeply about my husband and don't want to hurt him. To be clear, I've never cheated. Ever. But in starting to think this isn't the life I want but I'm to scared to hurt someone who cares so much about me.

We've been together for four years, and married for one. I've only been with two men my whole life including him. Maybe dated all of five people. But he acts like he doesn't trust me at all. And not just with cheating. One time he lost a little baggie of bud and almost insisted that I took it to smoke. He found it a week later under the dresser drawer because it fell behind it. But accused me up until then. My crazy neighbor recently followed me up my apartment steps. I came into the apartment and had no time to explain I just told him he needed to answer the door when they started banging on it and opened the recorder on my phone just in case they did anything stupid and later my husband said he though I was going to have a bunch of guys jump him or something while I filmed it. Why would he think I'd do something like that? My best friend of seven years who's like a brother to me has recently become a problem with him. He doesn't allow me to hang out with him by myself but acts like an *** around him. I don't lie, I've never cheated. I've been patient with it for a while because I know he had been hurt before. I just feel like I've earned some kind of trust by now. Now it just makes me feel like garbage. It's making me question myself and if maybe there's a reason I don't deserve his trust. It's starting to drive me crazy. What should I do? I've talked to him about it before and nothing has changed. What could be causing this? Trust is the foundation to a good relationship.

My boyfriend really needs to drop out. I know it sounds a little messed up, but early in his high school career there were a lot of at home issues and it ended up destroying his grades and denying him most of his credits. Ultimately he is now 18 and is still a sophomore. I'm not saying that it isn't partially his fault, but bottom line, whats done is done and there's no way he can fix it now. Even his current grades are awful and even if he brought those up he would still be in high school until hes like 20 and that's creepy.

I convinced him to drop out and get his GED and maybe go to a technical college and/or focus on his career, but we don't really know where to start. Like what papers we may need, where to get them, if we need to talk to someone, or even if we need to go somewhere. We know how to get his GED we just need some information on the initial dropping out.

We live in Louisiana, and like I said hes 18 so he should be able to just take care of this and start being a productive member of society.

Thank You!

I hate to stereotype myself, but I have a gothic/harcore style. Ive wanted a black leather jacket for the longest time. Im realistic though and know the fauxs are cheaper, and im cool with that. but i cant seem to find any, online or just around. Im a really tall chick and I have long arms and and so I need like an XL or evan an XXL.

I also dont want to spend an arm and a leg, so the cheaper the better. THANK YOU!!

Me and my best friend Harley have been best friends for a long while, she just got out of a long and bad relationship and I was there with her through it all.Ive been dating my boyfriend that I've liked for over a year. My best friend and I have a strange sense of humor and were always making sexual innuendos and jokingly hit on each other. Lately she has pretended to kiss me me without actually doing it but last night before Prom she actually kissed me full on, and my boyfriend was there. She told my boyfriend who didn't see it "You b*tch you missed it" and when he looked she did it again and he saw it. All the guys made jokes and stuff. She doesn't have many chick friends and she doesn't act that way with any of them. I don't want to saying anything to my boyfriend or my best friend because I don't want things to be weird and I don't want to ruin the awesome friendship that we have. I don't know how to approach this especially seeing as she is 100% Straight. What should I do? Any advice?

For Christmas my genious father got me an aweful android tablet. Not to sound like an ungreatful brat but this thing sucks worse that I could ever imagine. I can't even do the simplest thing without rage quitting, not to mention it was used and had an unlock key that I did not set. I finally figured out how to fix that but I can't because for some reason my silver "back" button is unresponsive. WTFFFFFF!!! it's seriously pissing me off, I just want to fix it so that I can sell it and get somthing better. well actually at this point anything would be better than this peice of sh*t. the button stopped working after my dad was messing with it. I dont know wtf he did. idk if he turned it off or what. I just need to know how to fix it.

Is there a setting or somthing that he turned it off with without knowing or something. Im desperate, I just want to get rid of the thing.

How do I fix the button and what are my options?

For Christmas I'm getting a new iPod. The one I've had now, I've had for five years. It's an 80g iPod Classic. So I'm finally getting a new one. The problem is that I don't know what I want to get.

I would just get an iPod touch 4th generation but I'm worried that the screen will crack. I don't like to think that I'm bad with electronics but I'm going to carry this thing around everywhere and I want an iPod that can handle it without breaking easily or having gross cracks all of the time. If I'm going to pay this much for an iPod, it better be worth it. I've had this Classic for five years and it still works awesome. The only problem is that the software is too old and Apple stopped making updates so now every time I want to update my music I have to format the iPod, it's ridiculous but I want one that will be as long lasting.

So basically I need an ipod that is new and awesome. One that can hold all my music without any storage issues, so 8g or higher. One that can handle everyday use without having to treat it like fine china, and one that will last. It has to be worth my money.

What iPod should I get? THANK YOU!

Im getting a camera for Christmas but I don't know wich one to get.

Let me start by saying that there is a pice range, I want to stay at 300 and under, I know its not a very big window, but I have to work with what I have.

No, im not a stupid annoying chick who wants a camera that makes it easy to take a billion cheezy pictures of myself in my mirror. I plan to go to colledge and get a visual arts dagree, my career choice is a photographer. My specialty is still life, but I want a camera good for that and takeing pictures of people (obviously). preferably one that I can change the lenses on because I already have some really nice lenses from an old film camera that I have, Im fine with the film camera but I do better with digital. What camera do you think would be best for me? and if you can. links please.

Thank You for your help.

I have been homeschooled online for three years due to my dads job movieing us every few months. It was a private school and we payed a lot of money for it. recently we moved to Louisiana and it's sopposed to be permanent so we decided to save money and let me go to public school. I didnt have a problem, in fact i was happy to. the first day I went to PE and it turns out the coach is also the girls basketball coach, Im a five elleven girl. So naturally i figured I might as well get involved.

The first practice he made us run the stadiums and I threw up.

the second day of practice we ran the school and did push up off of basketballs and i couldnt correctly do either. So on and so on, every day of practice I started dreading it, it made me sick to my stomach to think of it, but im not a quitter so I kept trying and trying. when it was time for sponsors I naturally went to my dads company first. his boss got confused and long sory short without my knowing, my dad put sixty dollars of his own money in to help me out. If i had known I would have told him not to because now I have all kinds of pressure. Friday we had practice again, he had made us walk hurdles to get our knees up before but this time he made us RUN hurdles. I know a lot of people do it but I cant. I didnt shign up for track. I have huge feet, long legs and the last time I played a sport it was Upward christian basketball when I was in the fith grade. of couse I fell, over and over and over again. I have so many buises on my knees and shins. I dont know if i can do this, im not a quitter but I cant handle it. soon the practices will be every day. I cant dread every day of my life. I get up at six and dont get home after practice until four fifteen then I take a shower, then I eat dinner and by the time im done with schoolwork its time for bed. I dont want to be a quitter but i have no free time and I cant handle it. I would quit but my dad would be pissed, I mean he put sixty buck in this. idk what do do! help me or give me an opinion. I already told my mom my dilema and she got irritated and told me to try and stick it out. please please pleas help.

Thank You for your time i know this was a long question.
